Default 440 on e-bay - but be quick!

Spotted this one, looks very tidy, but only 18 hours to go so be quick!

Could be cheap too - current bid only £205.

Worth a punt?

Went for only £320. Someone got a bloomin bargain I think.

Alternatively, it does rather show, perhaps, what the open market thinks 440's a worth at the moment.

Couldn't agree more, Graeme! But why? I've got a friend's mother's car listed - only two owners with 37k miles. Granted, it does need re-commissioning, but it resembles a three year old car - definitely much too good to scrap but, so far, no interest!

tis a shame, these are such underrated cars. theres a red 440 turbo round the corner from me, i really wish i could have it.

i am in love with the 400 series (weirdly) and want to open a carrery for them (like a cattery but for cars hehe)

It's where the 300 was 6/7 years ago, there was 5? of us who seemed to be into them and loads of cars were just not selling.

It'll pick up I imagine. Just remember you guys will have the same parts issue, given the factory they were built in

Tell me about it. Deeply ironic given that the Amazon has all the parts availability you'd ever need. [120 owner].

Most people call them 'scrapyards'.
